Abstract

With growing numbers of mHealth interventions, there is a need to evaluate the quality of existing apps based on quality assessment criteria that are grounded in published literature and health behavior research. These criteria can help identify the quality of mHealth apps from the perspectives of reliability, feature usefulness and feature convenience. This chapter will discuss the various quality criteria that are relevant for mHealth apps that target drug-related problems, as well as for medication management, through the development of two quality assessment tools. In addition to reliability, usability and privacy criteria, other feature criteria related to tele-monitoring, interaction checkers, dose calculators, medication information provision, medication records, as well as tele-support, tele-collaboration and personalization/contextualization, will be discussed. This chapter aims to provide guidance to mobile app developers, clinicians and patients on the types of quality parameters to consider in apps that are designed for pharmaceutical care and medication management.

移动医疗干预措施质量评估的必要性

随着移动医疗干预的数量不断增加，有必要根据基于已发表文献和健康行为研究的质量评估标准来评估现有应用程序的质量。这些标准可以从可靠性、功能有用性和功能便利性的角度来帮助识别移动健康应用程序的质量。本章将通过开发两种质量评估工具，讨论与针对药物相关问题的移动健康应用程序以及药物管理相关的各种质量标准。除了可靠性、可用性和隐私标准外，还将讨论与远程监测、交互检查器、剂量计算器、药物信息提供、药物记录以及远程支持、远程协作和个性化/情境化相关的其他特征标准。本章旨在为移动应用程序开发人员、临床医生和患者提供指导，指导他们在为药物护理和药物管理设计的应用程序中考虑的质量参数类型。
